V1C2 Part2

Parsed with an automated reader. The content accuracy is not guranteed.

Whether it be the chairman, the gyaru, or the Yankee delinquent, none of them was readily able to infringe upon her; the same applies to the member of the literature club, whom she was too hesitant to look in the eyes. Even the teachers themselves think 『Ah. It would be better not to be involved with this student.』, convincing themselves to ignore her.

No, that’s simply the logic of the 〝strong〟, which I am forced to understand.

All of Amagami Yumiri’s actions were composed of the logic of the 〝other side〟, which was far beyond the realm of what I could comprehend.

It was extremely annoying.

I mean, what is this situation?

I really can’t keep up with it at all.

To begin with, how could someone who only appeared in my dreams appear in real life? How does she know about me? For her to transfer at such a conspiratorial time, it’s driving me insane. Moreover, what’s with the weird plague doctor costume with its eyeballs popping out and a beauty inside? I even got kissed. Yes, naturally, that is my first. I’d never thought I’d get my first time taken away in such a situation.

It was like being swallowed by a muddy stream. The presence of Amagami Yumiri was way beyond a different league, where I was being continuously swallowed up. It reminded me of laundry being thrown into a washing machine. Now I was no different from a crumpled-up sock or shirt being tossed in the detergent.

[You know. Aren’t you seriously overdoing it by doing whatever you want?]

But I couldn’t help but resist.

After finally taking a sip of my udon, I glared at Amagami Yumiri.

[It’s your first-day transferring schools, right? Think about your position a little more. We’re in the eyes of society. Show some decency. Even I’m getting a little concerned about it? I mean, I know I call them rubbish and all, but even so, I still go to school, so──or rather, take a look around? In this cafeteria where we are, everyone in the gallery is eating lunch around us. Isn’t everyone getting in a strange mood looking at us? Or perhaps I should say, they’re saying various things to each other in whispers.]

[Yes. I can hear them.]

[If that’s the case, you should be a little more concerned about it.]

[I don’t care.]

She laughed.

In a very invigorating way in fact.

It was a smile that suppressed all objection, no questions asked and no answers given, as if common among those who are enjoying life at this very moment.

[There’s no point in worrying about it, and it’s no use. Those who don’t offer legitimate protests to my face, do lesser things like backbiting. I don’t have to listen to them. Their opinions are worth less than the noise around me.]

Unwavering.

The tone of her voice was natural, yet somehow, at its core, it was unwavering.

[I told you before, right? I am free. With all due respect. I can come and go as I please, even in your dreams, but if I’m acting suspiciously just because I’m a little out of place, it doesn’t make sense, does it?]

[…Yeah, yeah. That’s right. You’re something like a strong guy.]

Tsk.

I clicked my tongue.

This person pisses me off.

Amagami Yumiri was the complete opposite of me.

She was not a social outcast like me. She’s not some trash which is bored and weary of the day-to-day activities and only looks forward to fulfilling her petty self-esteem in her dreams. She was a genuine brilliance, something that shines with a light that everyone has to admit is awfully dazzling.

[Or rather, what are you?]

I rudely thrust my chopsticks toward her, finally asking the important question.

[Honestly, I don’t understand the current situation at all. Can you explain? Who are you? Seriously, are you truly the one who appeared in my dreams? Why are you here? Why did you do such an action the moment we met──like kissing me, why? Also, why are you following me around like this? I don’t understand. Can you please explain it to me? Otherwise, my brain’s going to collapse.]

[Didn’t I already tell you?]

Amagami Yumiri smiled.

[I am a doctor. The world itself is the object of my treatment, and you, Jiro Sato, are the disease that affects the world. That’s why I enter your dreams every night and try to put you in remission with surgical methods, but to my surprise, you defy all my attempts to cure you. That’s why I’m here. I came to this school as a transfer student. For the sake of becoming your lover──do I need to explain any more?]

『If you will withdraw yourself from your nightly dreams of mischief and distance yourself from your wildest desires to turn the world upside down.』

『Then I promise you. I will provide you with a lover.』

[…Damn it.]

I said.

I thought I sounded witty, but my voice my hoarse and I was sweating suspiciously.

[I-I have pride too, you know? Even if I die, I’m not going to say something like; Please take care of me.]

[Is that so? In your dream, you seemed to be quite happy about it.]

Shut up.

Yeah, that’s right, I was not only nonplussed, but I was also very excited.

And then, when I opened the door, something similar to a high spec girl appeared, even going as far as kissing me. How could I not be more than a little perplexed? Though I won’t deny that there was a part of me that was so happy that I wanted to jump with joy.

But you know what?

I’m an adolescent boy who’s a hundred per cent in a state of shock.

Spoiler: I’m a virgin.

[When it comes to it, do you think you can do whatever you want? As long as you say you can do whatever you want, I’ll resist until the bitter end.]

I declared.

It probably doesn’t look so good with a small bottle of shichimi pepper in your hand, though.

Amagami Yumiri seemed perturbed.

She brought her face within ten centimetres of mine and whispered.

[You, weren’t you very interested during our discussion? Transforming into a fiendish dragon, threatening to eliminate me, and despite that, you changed your mind rather quickly. As soon as I proposed that 『 I’ll provide you with a lover』, your heart trembled violently. Moreover, you even requested that she be an 『aggressive girl』.]

[S-Shut up. That was purely by ch──]

[I’m proud to say that I took the initiative and actually kissed you. Plus, I have big breasts, and I’m also beautiful. As your girlfriend, I don’t think I’m lacking in any aspect.]

[By no means did I expect you to show up! I mean, who wouldn’t be perplexed if that weird plague doctor person appeared as a beautiful girl transferring schools?]

[Ara? So you recognize me as a beautiful girl? I’m so happy.]

[Or perhaps I should say, you’re too good at telling stories! There’s definitely something going on behind the scenes! Honestly, I feel like 『if I can go out with this cute girl, I don’t care about anything else』, but this is definitely suspicious! Something like a trap! In any case, whether it be multi-level marketing or a cult religion, I definitely won’t be deceived!]

[That’s fine. Being sceptical is a virtue.]

Tsun-Tsun.

Amagami Yumiri pokes my cheeks.

[In other words, it becomes a confrontational structure. I try to win you over; you resist my temptation ── it’s a clear and simple composition.]

[Could you not prattle on and on as you please? I’m telling you, I didn’t abandon that dream world, okay? It is my right to do whatever I want in that dream world. Whether or not the earth falls sick or gets destroyed, it has nothing to do with me. I’ll do what I want. I won’t take any orders from you.]

[That’s nice. A tsundere.]

[Tsundere…!?]

You bastard, take that back.

To define people in such a crude way. It’s rough; however, I can’t argue with that. If I remember correctly, this pattern always ends up with her getting the better of me. In fact, having such a beautiful woman being within ten centimetres of me is a situation that could never happen in the span of my human life.

Seriously, what are you? Doing whatever you please, saying you’re a doctor who cures the world, changing schools for the sake of becoming my girlfriend, and other such bullet-pointed itemizations. I don’t know anything concrete about you, you know?

Where are you from?

Who are you, what do you do, and for what purpose?

[Hey.]

A voice called out to me.

Not from the inept doctor in front of me.

I turned to look behind my back.

Inwardly, I raised my voice [eep!]

[Jiro, you. What do you think you’re doing, hey.]

Standing there was the Yankee.

She was the classmate who always used me as a gofer. In my dreams, I made her run my errands.

[I told you I’d have curry buns and fruit olé today, didn’t I? Then why are you sitting here so carefree, slurping on your udon noodles?]

Her ponytail shook.

[A-Ah, yeah], I turned my eyes away while admiring her courage in trying to do something so pointless. Everyone in the cafeteria was looking at Amagami Yumiri from afar, so for her to do a direct confrontation was like a suicide attack. In the morning classroom, during the transfer students’ debut, they were all wide-eyed, their mouths agape.

[Oi, hurry up and get it for me.]

[A-Ah, yes. B-But, I’m still eating my udon noodles…]

[There isn’t much time left. Hurry up, or the store will be closed.]

[A-Ah, yes. But.]

She glances next to me.

The transfer student chuckles and watches the proceedings in silence.

[You’re not going to interrupt me, are you?]

The Yankee proclaimed, her eyes like daggers.

Not at me, but at Amagami Yumiri. Once again, I was impressed. To think that if it was someone like me, I would’ve been uncomfortable looking squarely at the quack. Yankees are amazing creatures, in a way. How should I put it? Ah yes, foolhardy.

[What the hell are you doing, taking around someone’s gofer without permission?]

The Yankee got even more furious.

[And yet, you don’t even say hello, or offer a single apology? I don’t know who you are, but you’re not making any sense, are you?]

[Heh~], said Yumiri. That is to say. You’re claiming ownership of Sato Jiro-Kun?]

[That’s exactly what I’m saying.]

The Yankee said in a threatening voice.

[Fu~n]

Amagami Yumiri chuckles once again, her behaviour hinting at a deeper meaning.

[Faster than I thought. Maybe it’s a bad influence]

[…Aah? What are you talking about?]

[I’m talking about us. And here is my answer to your complaint.]

Amagami Yumiri smiled sweetly.

And then, she kissed someone.

That, someone, was me. It was the second time, after the morning kiss.

But it was different from the kiss in the morning. It was a messy deep kiss. Her glistening tongue swirled and wiggled like a single, independent creature, violating every inch of my mouth.

Directly ravishing my brain marrow.

Countless flashes burned behind my retina, and my heart stopped beating.

[However, it’s bad.]

As she pulled apart our lips, a transparent thread was revealed. Amagami Yumiri smiled sweetly and said to the Yankee, whose eyes were wide open and her mouth agape.

[He’s mine now. Can you find someone else?]

It wasn’t only the Yankee whose mouth was agape.

Everyone in the cafeteria, and finally me, Sato Jiro. It was as if I had lost my soul.

No, no, no.

Wait, wait.

Not just once, even going as far as twice. A kiss. This time in front of almost everyone in the whole school. Furthermore, it was a deep kiss. Crap, crap, my back feels completely chilly, and my legs are paralyzed with fear even when I’m sitting down. To be honest, I was excited, sexually. I mean, is kissing something you can do so casually? Until yesterday, I only had a proper conversation with a girl once every few months.

[Ke-]

The Yankee finally opens her mouth.

It’s good that she’s opening her mouth, but she looks like an oxygen-deficient goldfish.

[Ke, Ke, t-tsk, y-you.]

[I’ll say it once more, Sato Jiro is mine. By all means, if you want him back, you have to do the same.]

She declared.

Her figure was brazen.

One step short of arrogance, filled with conviction and self-confidence, that’s exactly what a strong person should be. She was clearly at the top of the pyramid of survival.

[──Remember this.]

She left behind a refreshingly parting remark and turned on her heels.

Game over. No, or perhaps it was not a contest at all. I felt rather sorry for the Yankee, who was blushing red up to her ears.

[Don’t worry about the future.]

Amagami Yumiri, on the other hand.

Had completely forgotten everything that happened a few minutes ago, then, she said.

[Jiro-kun, you won’t be able to survive if you get this ecstatic over this one kiss, understand? In the distant future, I have even more amazing things planned. So while you still can, you had better get used to this simulation. If you like, wanna do it again?]

Don’t do it!

I immediately refused and began shovelling down the stretched udon noodles.

In that sense, I was no different from that Yankee, who was no match for her from the start. Ever since I first met her, I’ve been pushed around by the self-proclaimed 『doctor who cures the world.』
